Did you know AHK Studio comes with 87 built-in hotkeys?
Most people use maybe five of them. Save, copy, paste… and a whole lot of mouse clicking for everything else.
That’s a LOT of time left on the table.
How about you? How many AHK Studio hotkeys could you name right now?
The trick is having them in front of you until your fingers learn them. So I put them all on paper. 😊
Two PDFs and an Excel Sheet
- All 87 hotkeys on a printable PDF
- The 17 “must know” hotkeys on their own PDF, so you start with the ones that matter most
- An Excel sheet with every hotkey, so you can sort, filter, or make your own list
Print the Must Know sheet first. Tape it next to your monitor.
Once those are automatic, move on to the full list.
8 Hotkeys Worth Learning First
Here are some that save me time every day:
| Hotkey | What it does |
|---|---|
| Alt+R | Run your script |
| Ctrl+Shift+K | Kill the running script |
| F2 | Duplicate the current line |
| Ctrl+J | Comment or uncomment the line |
| Ctrl+Shift+Up / Down | Move the selected lines up or down |
| Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Up / Down | Add another cursor above or below (edit several lines at once) |
| Ctrl+Shift+N | Turn the selected code into its own #Include file |
| Ctrl+Alt+O | Omni Search: jump to any function, class, label, or hotkey |
That’s 8 down. 79 to go. 😃

Get the AHK Studio Hotkeys
The AHK Studio Hotkeys pack is $4.99. You get both PDFs and the Excel sheet.
One thing I’ve learned: every hotkey you learn pays you back a few seconds, hundreds of times a day.
Learn three this week. Your mouse will get lonely. ⚡
